Midterm results of vascular ring connector in open surgery for aortic dissection.

OBJECTIVES This study observed midterm results of vascular ring connectors in surgery for aortic dissection. METHODS Vascular ring connectors were used as stents in vascular grafts to achieve quick, sutureless anastomoses. Tapes were used to secure ringed vascular grafts from outside the aorta. RESULTS From November 2007 to February 2011, 113 consecutive patients with aortic dissection, exc...
